Speaking 22 Different German Dialects - Can You Understand All of Them?? 🇩🇪
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 มิ.ย. 2024
- German is often falsely viewed as one language spoken by Germany and a couple of other countries, but there is so much more to it. In fact, 6 countries have German listed as an official language but it is spoken in many other regions in other countries where it may not be recognized officially nationally. On top of that, depending on who is defining them, German can have up to 40,000 different dialects! A few months ago we asked our viewers to send in clips of them speaking their German dialect so we could show just how incredibly diverse the German language is. From Pfälzisch to Swabian and from Bairisch to fränkisch, you'll hear them all (almost)!😊

Our second video which has 42 different dialects is now live and you’ll be happy to know we did actually have Germans from the east submit clips this time 😃 Watch it here: th-cam.com/video/xn8wNa_R1-c/w-d-xo.html
The most foreign language I`d like to learn as an Lower-Austrian (east of Austria) is switzerdütsch. And maybe you can research if its true that Bayern is teaching dialect in elementary school.
Again I like your videos and try to suppurt you in writing comments. If this does not make sence please tell me.

What dialect do they speak in Lichtenstein ?
Hunsrückisch is what I learned to speak when living in Germany for six years.
That you two live in Rhineland-Pfalz, what dialect sounds the most familiar to your ear?

To summarize: All you non-native speakers can be REALLY proud of yourselves if you become fluent in German at some point 😂
Luckily you only need standard German. Almost every dialect speaker would quickly switch to standard German and even most of them (but not all) would switch to english as soon as they realize that they are not understood ;-)
Most dialect speakers grow up trilingual ;-)
- The local dialect (beginnig with day one ;-)
- Standard German (from the first day of school if not earlier, maybe at kindergarden or even earlier at home).
- English (it varies, but for example many start to learn it in the 3rd year of school in a rather playful way with simple words and phrases to get a feeling for it - and that's good! In the 5th year of school grammar is added to it, which makes it more complicated, some struggle and don't really want to learn or use it...
But many things are available in english only, for example almost everything around science, space, computers and so on. Even music instruments like keyboards - you can't expect to have the manual or the website or even the display in German for additional information, for updates, for addtional sounds. Or software in general or games. Not everything has a German translation to it.
@@richard--s that’s a perfect summary! Fun fact there are some examples where children grow up with multiple dialects at the same time, as for me I grew up with Bairisch, Schwäbisch and Kölsch. Others even grow up with another native language such as Turkish, Italian or Arabic. Basically there is hardly such a thing as a person only and exclusively speaking high German 😅
@@CHarlotte-ro4yi you can't have enough languages ;-)
Du koost net gnuag Sprochn hom ;)
That would be a summary ;-)
@@CHarlotte-ro4yi schon aber es kommt bei zuvielen dialekten oft auch richtig Kauderwelsch raus, gerade weil im Bayrischen andere Ou Laute wie im Oberpfälzerischen sind. Die Betonung anders ist. Wenn man da reinrutscht aber anders angefangen hat klingt es richtig verkehrt xD
So: Ich hab (hochdeutsch) da scha a (bayrisch) bou mui (oberpfalz) gsogt dass i des (bayrisch) dou nimma seng mog. Dua des one! (Ohne heißt dran. I dat sang: dra!) Stattdessen gibt s hier o dau oder duchat nicht (anschieben zb Entwicklungsschub, Schaukelstoßen aber auch Wehenpressen) und (duchat ist bettdecke)
So ungefähr.
Übrigens ist bayrisch nicht bayrisch. 10 Kilometer weiter sagt man zu Äpfel: Äapfa und ich: Opfe.
Ganz schön verrückt alles.
@@phonix-1579 haha ja das war mir auch bewusst, ich hab der Einfachheit halber “bairisch” und “schwäbisch” geschrieben bin aber logischerweise mit jeweils bestimmten Formen dieser Dialekte aufgewachsen. Für jemanden der den Dialekt nicht spricht oder versteht macht es freilich keinen Unterschied aber ich kann die Nuancen ganz gut raushören und Menschen den verschiedenen Dialektregionen des bairischen ganz gut zuordnen 🤓

As a native speaker, i can say that most of us don’t even understand some other dialects. Like I am from Thuringia, when I was the first time in Austria and a man talked to me I only understood half of the words just because i knew someone who lived in Austria. So what do we learn from that: even german native speakers have some difficulties with it
Ich bin aus Österreich verstehe fast alle und bin auch German native 🤦🏼♀️
I bin aus Österreich und versteh fast alle bis auf platt-deutsch
The most german will understand everthing because we not using specific word for something for exemple carott i use them all but it depence with how im talking and on the situation im in there are onky a few words that i dont know from otger dialect but even sometimes the person hwo is talking us dialect dont know
@@sayonara_eiji1809 ja weil es umgekehrt ist und deutsche die Wörter viel breiter aussprechen (sag ich als Österreicher)
@@Moritz_abi Ich verstehe als Deutscher auch fast alle. Ob ich jetzt jeden Österreicher in jedem Tal in jeweiligen regionalen Subdialekt versteh ist ne andere Frage. Aber im ZWeifel ja. Allerdings bin ich da als schwabe auch selber nah dran.
Was ich quasi nicht als deutsch erkannt hab war das an der dänischen Grenze. Grade die Zahlen.... Das ist schon ne andere Sprache und kein Deutsch mehr. :D
I live in a rural small town Austria. Many foreigners struggle here despite them being able to speak German. They are not warned enough what could happen to them 😅
I mean, I'm from northern Germany and boy did I have problems understanding some people in rural Oberösterreich :D
Living in a rural small town in Austria, Styria I struggle sometimes understanding the people living 10 km away from me 🤣🤣
I'm from NRW and we went mountain climbing on Austria but the instructor talked in austrian dialect and my oh my I barely understood half of what he was saying and then he started cracking jokes with me and I just laughed cause I didn't want to be rude but I actually had no idea what he was talking about
You can take the book SPEAK AUSTRIAN Handbook for the Austrian dialect and your first steps in Austria. They is the best for learn the Austrian German🇦🇹🇩🇪🇬🇧
Near Salzburg was wiiiiiiild 😅😅
I live in Canada. My Dad was from Hamburg Germany and my Mom was from a small village near Salzburg Austria. They met and married here in Canada in about 1953. The German I learned was my Dad's version. My Mom's German is an Austrian dialect. I also learned the German that they knew from when they left Germany. They did not learn modern day terminology for new things like computers, cell phones etc. When I visit relatives I have no problem for the most part understanding my relatives from Hamburg. However, when we visit our Austrian relatives I often do not understand what they are saying. They speak a completely different German than what I understand. It was really funny one time when my Husband and I were travelling in Germany on our own, I was asked what part of Germany I was from because they could not place my accent. I laughed and told them I was not from Germany but from Canada. They said I spoke German quite well. I do however, speak an old German because I do not know modern terminology. It is still easy to communicate though because many German people speak and understand English.
I am from Hamburg, too. Actually i am at work, at the port of Hamburg RIGHT NOW watching this Video. Please say "moin" to your Dad from his hometown 😎🇩🇪
Austrians sometimes use different vocabularies than Germans: They say "Topfen" instead of "Quark", "Biskotten" instead of "Biskuit", "Zuckerl" (instead of Bonbon) etc. Vienna-dialect and Steiermark-dialect are fairly hard to understand for most of us Germans...
griasdi aus Soizbuag euda! ✌️
@@janpracht6662 no standard german say Biskuit except maybe 80 years old, we just say Kekse or Gebäck
@@SlashpLOder Every baker/Konditor uses the word "Biskuit-Teig (dough)". I am 43 and it is still familar to me.
I'm from Swabia and I understand every dialect in southern Germany, Austria and Switzerland. But the northern dialects are something else 😅
Krasser Westen Ecke Saarland fand ich auch ganz schlimm muss ich sagen das klingt zusammengewürfelt aus allen möglichen Dialekten bissl abgeändert und paar Wörter dazu erfunden oder weggelassen :D Nicht böse an die die von da kommen aber muss echt sagen da heult ganz Deutschland immer rum dass uns Schwaben und Bayern keine Sau versteht... was soll das dann sein? :D
I'm from Berlin and to me it is the other way around. The poeple from the mountains are much harder to understand than someone from the Netherlands. And the one is a language and the other one a dialekt. Funny.
I dont think you could understand alpine swiss german dialects. People from Basel and Zurich cant even understand them, i can because I live in the "Voralpen" but if your from the flatland...no
Reading Asterix in your local dialect is so much fun! Highly recommended. They mostly are sold out pretty quickly and can end up being collectibles.
I can't read it in my dialekt (I'm from Berlin). But when it is written in Hochdeutsch I can rean it to you in my dialekt much more fluently.
Gotta say I often only understand it in my own dialect (Unterfränkisch) if I read it out loud
I used to read a lot of Bob & Bobette/ Suske & Wiske/Spike & Suzy (all the title of the same comics in different languages) and at some point my parents gotten a whole pile of them for me from god knows where and some of those were in Frisian which was hilarious to me to read but also bordering on unreadable.
@@just1it1moko never heard of those before, but it looks very much like Tintin.
Yeah I'm sure it's very hard to read at first too. The eyes cannot make out the words, but when just read out loud, it mostly begins to make sense :D
When I was at University (East Germany) and learned a foreign language, there was one Schwabe with a very very deep dialect. The first time he said something in class, I think the only person who understood him was the (foreign) teacher - after 3 seconds of thinking. The whole class had the "spinning cogwheels" look on their face :D
Heidenei
Ja dees isch ja a sach

I was born in an area where people only spoke Hochdeutsch and when I moved south to Freiburg im Breisgau, it took me YEARS to understand the people there, even if they only spoke a little bit of dialect. My brain could not compute xD And when I finally understood them, I moved to Bavaria...so back to start.. 😂
The dialekt in Freiburg is not very hard to understand, because of the University and its students from everywhere.
But the dialect in the area around Freiburg (especially South of it) is really strong and hard to understand…
@@cedriks.304 I once tried to pronounce the name of an Alemannic named resting place around Freiburg and failed miserably xD I can understand people from Basel and from Freiburg but between those two... not so much.
That's funny. I live in the area between Freiburg and Basel.For the most people who move here, from other regions in Germany, is it hard to get used to our dialect.
Common misconception: "Hochdeutsch" is what's spoken in the South, not in North. Hoch/high always referred to the altitude of the area. What's spoken in the North is "lower German" or Plattdeutsch ("flat German"), which is similar to Dutch.
And the best thing is: Every small town has its own variation of the local dialect. Or at least thats what I experienced here in southern bavaria.
In some Citys you have 8 ore more slangs.
A fun fact about Swabian dialects in Baden-Württemberg: the simple two words for "one egg" (Hochdeutsch ein Ei) can be pronounced as (and I will try to spell out how it sounds): ai ai, ai eu, eu ai, eu eu, or a eu ... :-D
As a German I can group dialects that I understand and groups I don't depending on their origin.
Where Im from we say it more like: oi oi😂
ʔn̩ ʔɔɪ̯
WTF?
we sah oa
I'd say "ä Ei" for one egg, in alemannic dialect in th southwestern corner of Baden-Württemberg.
This is actually really interesting for me as a German
I love hearing Plattdeutsch. I'm from a region right at the Dutch border, where we also speak Platt, but it's always interesting to hear, that it sometimes completly varies from household to household. Sometimes it varies so much, that two Platt speakers can't even understand each other.
finds so schade dass ich es nicht mehr gelernt habe, meine Oma hat noch fließend platt gesprochen aber danach hats dann leider irgendwie aufgehört
@@LePadro Bei mir ist es ähnlich. Meine Mutter spricht es wohl noch, aber ich habs leider auch nie richtig gelernt. Ich verstehe es wohl gut und hab viele Vokabeln in meinen normalen Sprachgebrauch übernommen, aber leider nicht fließend.
Ich hab erst in der Grundschule Hochdeutsch gelernt 😅
@@LePadro Bei mir ist es genauso. Meine Mutter kann es nicht sprechen, nur verstehen. Ich habe selbst damit leider ab und an Probleme.
Where are you from?
As a Saxon, I am extremely surprised and also a little disappointed that only a Berliner has appeared here as a representative for former East Germany. The statement that there are many other dialects that were just not made available is somewhat suspect. A simple check of one's own video would have quickly revealed that the former Soviet zone is extremely underrepresented. And in today's times I am convinced that surely enough East German speakers would have been found.
Regardless, it was a good overview of the dialects in my country. I would understand all of them, but every now and then I would have to think about what was meant.
i feel you. as a berliner i feel bad for that not only saxony and thuringia didnt appeared, also berlinerisch was quite underpresented
I think the same.
My friend, Hochdeutsch IST sächsisch.
Luther used „sächsisches Kanzeleideutsch“ as base for his Bibel Translation.
The „Lutherbibel“ became the comon standard for the language we now call Hochdeutsch.
So technically, we all speak Sächsch ;-)
@@dikon0172 Ja ich weis. Dennoch wird Regional anders gesprochen. Vom Harz bis ins Zittauer Gebirge. Vom Vogtland bis Pommern
@@SuedEsmeraldischesFernsehen ich habe in meinem Leben nur zweimal den Fehler gemacht, einem Vogtländer zu sagen, er klänge sächsisch, es war das erste und letztemal😂 und es kostete mich viel Bier die Wogen zu glätten.
Merke, das Vogtland ist sein eigener linguistischer Mikrokosmos, egal wozu sie politisch gehören.
Aber Du hast natürlich völlig recht, die Vielfarbigkeit mitteldeutscher Dialekte wird in diesem Video leider kaum berücksichtigt.
Für mich als Ruhrpötter ist es übrigens ebenfalls befremdlich unser ehrbares Ruhrplatt mit Kölsch abgearbeitet zu sehen.

Was ich aber an den Beiden einfach niedlich finde, ist die Tatsache, dass sie sich wirklich Mühe geben unser Land kennen zu lernen.
Hey, Nice video.
I'm from Switzerland and here it's a bit different with the status of dialect. While in germany many people don't even have a dialect and speak only standard german, in Switzerland everybody speaks only in dialect. Standard german is only used as a written language, in TV and if someone from Germany is around. Otherwise everyone talks in his/her dialect.
In Switzerland there are so many dialects and sometimes every valley has its own.
The interesting thing is, that most swiss people understand more or less every other dialect in Switzerland (with some exceptions).
Deutsche verstehen auch alle Dialekte mehr oder weniger (außer Plattdeutsch aber das ist auch ne eigene Sprache)
Can swiss people understand schwäbisch?
Hmm...meinsch d`walliser und d`oberländer? I am also from Switzerland, eastern part. Our dialect is similar to the one in the south of Germany. From my form of dialect, the more western ones are harder to understand. Fun fact, since most males need to serve in the Swiss Armed Forces you get to know many dialects... I somehow picked up the central Swiss word...güddersack, trashbag, compared to my local word, güsselsack. Since I served basic and NCO School near Lucerne.
@@GholamFareed yes
In mountainous regions of europe the dialect changine with every valley is pretty normal. In flatter regions it is either with other natural borders like big rivers.
The other thing in flatter regions is that if you listen closely you will notice that the dialects change (sometimes more, sometimes less) every 30km. That's the distance people before trains and cars ect. on average could cover in a day. So the usual "territory" of the people with a certain dialect.
The Voice from the very north west speaks frisian language. It is not a dialect of the german language. It is a language of its own with completly different vocabulary and grammar. I live in this region (Nordfriesland - North Frisia) and cannot understand anything in frisian language. I just speak plattdeutsch, witch is for some linguist also an own language. Here in North Frisia we have danish speaking people, pattdeutsch speaking people, hochdeutsch speaking people and frisian speaking people. That makes North Frisia in a way unique in Germany
There are even significant dialectal differences within Frisian, too. He was speaking Sölring, the Frisian from the largest North Frisian island Sylt. I am from the neighbouring island Föhr and speak its dialect of Frisian, Fering, and there are already some big differences to Sölring within such a close distance. The dialect of our other neighbouring island Amrum, Öömrang, is very similar to Fering, though, and differs only in a few words.
Moin, I send in the Sölring samples. And yes it is not a german dialect, but they included it to show the language diversity in Germany. Gröötnisen tö min fering Frinj fan Kiil :)
@@roerd sorry to hear that. Here in Latin America we steak ONLY spanish and portuguese, no dialects.
@@BETOETE Well, there still are several native languages, like Mayan, Nahuatl or Quechua
@@BETOETE I used to work in a team with a colleague from Peru, one from Mexiko, and one from Spain. Judging from what I (German) understand, there are differences between Latin American and European spanish, and even between Mexico and Peru there were differences in the ideoms used, or pronunciation of some words. Wouldn't you call that dialects (or at least regiolects) of spanish?
I am from South Tyrol (the region in Italy were German is one of the official language). We mostly speak standard German only in school, otherwise only dialect. No issues understanding the speakers from the rest of Tyrol, Austria, Bavaria, southern areas of Germany 😉
The situation is similar reg Italian dialects. People from the North don't really understand the dialects from the South (we would need subtitles).

Ich liebe den Südtiroler Dialekt, weil er mich immer an die bisher schönsten Urlaube meines Lebens und an die sehr nette Familie des Kronlechner-Hofs (Welschnofen), wo wir schon so oft waren, erinnert.

We may do that if we get enough interest! Thanks for letting us know you would like more 😃
@@PassportTwo Please contact me if you need more voice samples.
It is a real pleasure to support the channel. I really appreciate your great job. Nice greetings from Austria and please stay healthy.
@@PassportTwo Yes, sure, a second part would really be nice!
By the way, the translations of the sentences that the people gave were really accurate (I understood all, but not all single words of the first part of the video, so the context helps to understand the rest ;-)
It took me some months of watching Swiss television to understand the Swiss German variations that they speak - and I still try to learn Plattdeutsch - just for fun, but I don't have enough "materials" to learn it. But I could understand it - but I struggle with the most northern language of your examples, the Friesian... that's really hard for me. I am from Austria by the way, so the Bavarian dialect was the easiest to understand as I was a kid -- there were just some little nice modifications to the words and phrases, that was easy.
I noticed slight differences in the example sentences, for example from Vienna "a parl Würstl" ("ein Paar Würste", a pair of sausages, literally meaning 2 sausages), but that is due to the preferences. They love to eat "Wiener Würstel" which are called "Frankfurter Würstel" in Austria - a funny thing how that name varies ;-) and this kind of sausage usually comes in a set of 2. So that was a translation which also translated the kind of sausage to the usually used sausage.
And there was a bit of a variation of the kind of store in the sentence from a southern part of Austria. Both variations could also happen when the given sentence was in German instead of English. I think, that's not a big deal. That just adds a bit of a flavour to it.
And it also could seem "alien" to the speaker if he or she should translate it word by word, therefore the slight variations are quite normal.
A more strict translation could reslut in sentences which are more in the standard German ("Hochdeutsch").
This is also a thing, that most German dialects can be spoken in a more intense way ("im tiefen Dialekt") or more like standard German. The speakers can vary the strength of the dialect almost seamlessly like on a slider from deep dialect to standard german ;-)
@@PassportTwo I'd be very interested in a second video! You did very well with the first one.
Are there any dialects/regions you still don't have any samples of? Maybe I could ask some friends to collaborate.
@@PassportTwo if you needed more samples, I'd be more than willing to help because my dialect is so rare :D
Da habt ihr aber viel Arbeit reingesteckt! Tolles Video.

I'm German and worked in customer service for the Sparkassen here so had customers from all over Germany and some other countries with German speakers. I can understand everyone now even those with stronger dialects and yes Plattdeutsch (that from the north of Germany) is a different language and actually even closer to Dutch than the other dialects.
After years of learning English I can now also pretty easily understand all kinds of English dialects.
Hey Guys, I'm from NE Scotland and I speak a dialect(although I've heard it referred to as a language) called Dundonian, but as this falls under Middle-English, it could be seen as a language. Considering native English speaker may find it hard to understand, I reckon it's more a language than just a dialect. Politics aside, most of our words are actually of German origin.
They are so similar in fact, that you could've put them in this video and nobody would have noticed. I can send you a list of these words but there are so many. Anyway, check out Doric and Scots tongue. It's great fun.
As I learned to be a nurse, we had a doctor, on the daily visit she talked to us nurses in Standard German. The patiens, old ladies from the Kaiserstuhl looked at her and don't understand her. The Doctor than told the patiens in Allemannic what she had discussed with us, and the old ladies smiled an had understand her.
Most of the indigenes there understand Hochdeutsch very well. So do the other Alemanni in Switzerland and France *. . .*
@@letoubib21 but not in the 1990th. The old patients was born at 1915/1920 and they do only talk and understand Alemanic well.
There are less dialect speakers now than there were one or two generations before. But there are also publications in dialects, although these are now more considered as "curiosities", mostly. My 86 year-old father recently published a book with Swabian poems because he felt the urge to preserve the Swabian that was spoken in his home village when he was younger.
That's true for germany, in switzerland dialects are present in everyday life.
I would even argue that swiss german dialects are probably the ones that are growing in terms of speakers in the german speaking area instead of shrinking.
Great vid! Thanks. The northern German greeting “moin” is actually not derived from “Morgen” “morning”, but rather from the Plattdeutsch adjective “moi” “nice, pretty”, also found in Dutch as “mooi”, so you’re not saying “morning” (e.g. in the evening), but actually “a nice one” (whenever)…
I grew up near Kiel in northern Germany and we ve learned Plattdeutsch like a second laguage. Plattdeutsch has its own gramma and vocabulary. It's often more simular to english as to "normal German" Hochdeutsch. Thats why people from north Germany don't agree if you say they speak a dialect.
Sadly in Braunschweig we have less and less schools teaching Plattdeutsch as well as Hochdeutsch
I live near hamburg (still in SH tho), but wasn't taught any Plattdeutsch unfortunately :(
Yeah, because it's the true. It's an own language
I love how the Swabians use the diminutive for everything, even "Hallo". "So, "Hallöle" is only a small Hallo. Same for Tschüssle, Adele, and so on.

ist mir auch aufgefallen. Schade. Aber vielleicht haben die Sachsen auch nur die Nase voll davon gedisst zu werden. :D

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it 😊
This was unexpectedly elaborate and accurate. Great job, you two!
Oh, and those smiles of yours? Infectious.
The weird part about German dialects is that it's so hard to understand. When speak Hochdeutsch and when I was in Bavarian I couldn't understand them.
But when I made vacation in Norway I could understand much more then in my own language.
Imagine a region inhabited by the celts, then by the alemanii, then by the francs, then beiing hessian , then beeing even swedish for some time,then going back and forth between germany and france. Then beeing bavarian territory, with an influx of Tirolian refugees. Now imagine the dialect....yep...that's mine.
Except for bavarian and tirolian influences, that sounds a lot like my hometown. :)

Some of these sound more like Dutch than German, particularly the Plattdeutsch.
It is indeed closer to Dutch than to high German!
Interestingly Dutch and German dialects are linguisticly analysed as one continuum. Especially looking at the border dialects those are virtually the same. However, due to the far older and earlier standardisation of Dutch and political circumstances this developed into a fully extended separate language very different from high German.
Low German: once a North Sea Germanic language like English, but it got influenced by Franconian and Standard German, so it shifted away and isn't classified as one today, but instead rather close to German.
Dutch: once a central Franconian dialect (or at least what is now called central Franconian), influenced by Frisian and Middle Low German, so today it is sometimes classified as a North Sea Germanic language.
Dutch and Low German switched their classification.
@@Leo-uu8du Dutch is a Low Franconian language. If it would be a Central Franconian language, it would be a High German dialect.
@@arino253 It was once from the area which is nowadays Central Franconian (Old Central Franconian if you wish so). But some of the people there moved to the low lands in the north. There the language started to get influenced by Old Saxon (sry that was my mistake) and Old Frisian that much, that today we sometimes don't even consider it to be of the same branch as modern Central Franconian, but rather to be a North Sea Germanic language like modern Frisian and Englisch. There are however still some features in the language, that show the ancestry, like a common vocabulary and some sound changes. e.g. k instead of ts/tsh/sh: cheese vs kaas; the dutch g instead of a j-sound: dag vs day, sometimes a b instead of an f-sound: ik heb vs ik hav (German: ich habe).
I live in Swabia (Bavarian side, the Stuttgart Swabia is vastly different). I know from my parents and grandparents, that they had very different vocabulay from village to village. We have like ten different words for "head" down here.
🎉 congratulations you did it. I was waiting for this one. Please continue. Thank for all the effort and sure countless hours you but into this. 👏😘
That's what we're waiting for and I've been a part of it😂👍Well done! I learned english and french at school in germany. Since two years I watch a lot of korean dramas and last year I thought of learning korean to overcome the boring lockdowns.
Great video series. Thank you for that!
Thanks for the video!
I don't think that there was any misunderstanding due to the different levels of English, it was all the same. I do admit though that Söl'ring is very unusual for me, but understandable. I have never had much exposure to it. The Plattdeutsch though I would want to say is not just ONE language, there is Platt in different regions which sounds very different.
Söl‘ring has about 600 speaker on only one island. It‘s a bit difficult to get a lot of exposure ^^
Man ik früügi mi om ali Lir, diar Friisk liir wel.
Actually, Sölring (Sylt) isn't a dialect, it's a recognised language, as well as Amring (Amrum), Ferring (Föhr), and Halunder (Helgoland)
@@seorsamaclately4294 yes, I know. I send in the frisian audio samples. They included it to show the language diversity in germany.
@@MoLauer well done, laddie
This year you can finally travel. I'm happy for you guys to finally do what you wanted all along. :D
Enjoy!
Can't wait to see videos from your travels...
This is a wonderful Video, Thank You!
Fantastic video. Thank you for this. So glad about this. You transformed your experience into an all-german internal experience. Thumbs up!
When my grandparents spoke their dialect from the village I could barely understand a thing. Those examples here were significantly easier and I understood almost all
It's interesting that the examples of plattdeutsch seem closer to standard dutch than the dialect spoken by older people just over the border in groningen .
They are, you can see how similar it is also to English. Gezeiten (Tides) are called tide. The number ten (zehn) is teihn, which is really closer to ten than to zehn.
@@diesadas1982 yeah, a lot of times it seems like platt is just english but weirdly german pronounced
A very well researched video thank you!!
Great video. I had fun taking part. Thanks a lot. 😊
Super interesting guys!!! ❤️
I've lived in the Palatinate (different areas) my entire life and it puts a smile on my face to hear your Pfälzisch-speaker as what he says already differs from how I speak. Only 30 years ago, most every little village had their own unique dialect. With people having to travel further and further to just go to their job, dialects unfortunately get mixed and lost. Working in an American environment it is rare that I have co-workers who do understand German at all, but when talking to a German co-worker, we usually use our dialects when we want to make sure that they really don't understand what we're saying. For me, a dialect is just like another language and it's always good to be multi-lingual, isn't it? ;)
I loved this video so much! Best one yet.
The way you made this video is very entertaining and professional. Thank you from a former linguistic student. :)
Wow, Thanks
I'm from Austria (Styria, upper Murtal)
And I can tell relatives living 30 km away from where I grew up already speak a slightly different dialect. And each valley in the Alps in general basically has it's own, especially when you talk about alemanic dialects in the Alps it's crazy how divers it gets. Each mountain is a language barrier basically. (Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Vorarlberg in Austria etc.)
Also my wife who is from the border to the Czech republic there are words i never heard before, although the our dialects are relatively similar.
A Steirer ah dabei 👍
I come from Cochem near the Mosel and we say „Oah“ which basically is understood as a combination of „hello“ and „how are you“ sometimes. I think it is beautiful.
Such a interesting and well made video! Thanks a lot for that!
Just a tip if you want to make a second part: try the names of the days of the week. They also vary a lot!
loved it, the samples were pretty original
There are two things that prevent the language from falling apart completely:
1) The difference in pronunciation is somewhat systematic. Scientists have identified distinct sound shifts. So over time you know the trick which sound in the dialect means which in standard German
2) Many differences in local vocabulary involve the use of synonyms or near synonyms. E.g. the Swabian word for to talk „schwätzen“ means to chatter in standard German.
@13:24 Here you can see how dialects are influenced by Standard German: The Swabian speaker says he has had "Bredle" for lunch, which is a direct translation for Brötchen (bread roll). The correct Swabian word would be "an Wegga" or "a Weggle". The Swabian word "Bredle" means Plätzchen (Cookies / Bisquits). I am also a speaker of Swabian. And this would puzzle me, if another Swabian speaker says he would eat cookies for lunch.
So true. The Swiss also said she had a "Brötli" and I know it's fairly common to call it that nowadays. But this is a direct "dialectisation" of standard German "Brötchen". When I was a child (so roughly 25 years ago 😉) you would say you had a "Weggli/Mütschli/Semmeli" (basically just name the type of bread roll you ate).
Yes, indeed here around Stuttgart they shifted/skipped something with Wecken, Bretle, Gutsle, Bonbon. In a strange way for normal Swabian people.
@@matthiasscherer9270 In the Suabian part of Bavaria where I live, we would say Semmel, but the dialect word for buscuit is Loible (singular), Loibla (plural) - the same bonbon = Guatsle/Guatsla. But you hardly ever hear dialect spoken anymore except sometimes by old people. I can't speak it but understand it.
This was awesome!!!! Subscribed!
Thank you for this video-- I am always trying to find more information on this topic, particularly in regards to Hessisch.
Yay, I'm on TH-cam, in a fashion! ;) Great video, accurate, fun, informative. That must have been a lot of work! Just a minor footnote: when linguists say "Hochdeutsch", they don't mean standard German but High German (i. e. Southern) dialects, so be prepared to be corrected by pedants like me. ;)
That is why we specifically said standard German can be „referred to as“ and added the word „colloquial“ above Hochdeutsch when we said that 😅 We knew someone would want to comment on it so we were specific with our wording 😂 Thanks so much for participating!! 😊
@@PassportTwo Wir Süddeutschen und (vor allem) die Schweizer nennen es "Schriftdeutsch".
Researching dialects is fun :) At the university I have also participated in a huge research project in 2 semesters, it was about the dialects of the Germans living in Hungary (meaning the historical minority). We traveled to little villages and talked to cute old people and recorded how they say different words and sentences. My favourite was how one lady called the flower lilac: it's "Kiridochburschn" in her dialect :) (After the recording we also had to write down the words with phonetic symbols, that part was less fun... Later the whole work was published by the university, it's the Ungarndeutscher Sprachatlas.)
If I could learn any language I'd choose Finnish, it's so cool :)
This is just amazing. Thanks to share the great differences in German dialects to the english community!
Des habt ihr 2 echt super erklärt 👍☺️
I once went to Zürich to see Metallica and someone bumped into me and said something and in my best Viennese high German I asked 'should I have understood that?' And after a double-take he said:'probably not.' Turns out he was from Vorarlberg, part of my country and I could understand the local Swiss better...
This reminds me of my trip to Rome. A Bavarian family approached us because they overheard us speaking German. So they spoke in their Bavarian dialect and we didn't understand anything :D Then, a couple of minutes later, a random Dutch person approached us and asked: "Spreke nederlands? Kun je een foto maken?" and without any problems we understood everything he said :D Pretty funny that you sometimes understand people from a different country better than people from your own country^^
Ha, well, Vorarlberg at times is closer to parts of Switzerland than Austria. I mean, they held a referendum after World War 1 to join Switzerland instead of staying with Austria, but the Swiss gently declined.
@@MTTT1234 -> "Kanton Übrig" ;-)
I moved twice within Bavaria, and every time I had to learn the language all over again. First from Franken to South East Oberbayern and recently to Schwaben, and I don't understand a word of what my neighbors are saying.
Super cool collection of different dialects! Would also be interested in hearing the rest of the examples :-)
You both AWESOME !!!Please continue-It‘s fun to listen your German words.👍👍😂😂🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁
Finally your dialect video!
My great-grandmother (when she was still alive) only spoke Westphalian Low German. My grandmother only started to learn Standard High German in school. As a result, I could barely communicate with my own great-grandmother without my grandmother or someone else translating. 😂 (I can understand it somewhat, but it's kinda hard to keep up.)
My grand parents spoke Westfalian Low German with each other, but my father only learned to understand, not speak Low German. I know a few words but would have liked to learn it.
Absolut perfektes video, Jungs! Sehr gut recherchiert, informativ, ausführlich und genau! Die Qualität des Videos ist einwandfrei und sehr Professionell!
Vielen vielen Dank! 😃
Spitze! Danke sehr!
A nice subject. A sequel would be very welcome. Cologne, for example, is only 60 km away from my city, but if you notice how two perhaps somewhat older Cologne residents are talking, it can easily happen that at some point you no longer understand anything.
This reminds me of the list NDR(Nord Deutscher Runfunk) sometimes makes. The list words that are only used in north germany or that are Platdeutsch an often implement in too hochdeutsch in north germany. Some examples had me schocked. "Pömpel" "Naschi" "Tüdel" "Blage" "Turnbüdel" "krüsch"
That is a great piece of work. Verry well done!
Thanks so much! Really means a lot 😊
Moin! Very nice content, thanks for your effort :-)
I speak high German at school but at home I speak low German. Sometimes I just mix them together.
It's so interesting to me how much the dialects also change within the areas they're spoken in. I grew up in the Upper Palatine speaking oberpfälzisch and the dialect quite literally changes from village to village.
There are some dictionaries for our dialect online and my mum and I were bored once and looked at one that was made by a town maybe 30km away from where our family is from. It had a section for sayings and while many were the same or similar to what we would say, some sayings we had literally never heard before and for some of the entries we struggled to even understand what some words meant (in part because there is no uniform spelling and you just spell the way you speak, so because the pronunciation in that town is already a bit different to ours, we had to read it several times out loud and flip some letters around to recognise some words)
Very interesting video! Greetings from Austria
great video! thank you for sharing with us :)
Infortunately you left out the beautiful dialects of Berlin & Saxony. 😁
I‘m a Saxon myself from near Leipzig & I think the dialect is strongest in the area of Dresden & south regions of Saxony.
The dialects in the south east, especially in Saarland, are heavily influenced by french.
For example the word for sidewalk, normally "Bürgersteig", is "Troddwa" in the Saarland dialect and "trottoir" in french.
Also grammar is influenced by french. People in Saarland would say "ich habe kalt" instead of "mir ist kalt" to express their lack of protection from the elements.
In french you would say "j'ai froid" so in terms of grammar the same like people from Saarland.
*south-west
btw.: Trottoir, plafond, lavoir are words older austrians also use and know. (Has more to do with the napoleonic wars i guess) Although lavoir isn't pronounced correctly when used here.
Hey you two - that video is spectacular! I am a native Austrian, but Canadian business man frequently travelling through German speaking lands. You cannot imagine how loud I laughed and enjoyed watching your video. Typically I experience an hour or two of driving between these diverse accents, but in your video it was an instant switch. Wow, and THANK YOU :-).
As someone growing up in the countryside in the cologne region, dialect was still very present through Karnevals music (we don't speak Kölsch, but it's similar) and all the older people in the village speaking dialect, and I'm happy I'm still able to speak and understand it.
I was pretty sure though that I speak perfect accent-free Hochdeutsch until I moved to Hesse to study at a uni there and got asked about vocab I use several times. Last week one of my hessian friends even told me she was out buying a new car and the way the seller spoke reminded her of me, so she asked him where he was from and his hometown is less than 5 km away from the village I grew up in. When moving away I also realized how easy it is to pinpoint what regions my fellow students come from by the way they talk, even when they speak standard german, and I really like that. You kinda have a little piece of Heimat with you wherever you go and the diversity is great.
Wow, you have done an amazing work to put all that together. Greetings Habadere habt ihr euch a haffa arbeit gmacht..
Super Video! Die Sätze waren doch alle perfekt übersetzt. Ich find's super🤗. Mein Dialekt unterscheidet sich von allen aus dem Video. Bei uns unterscheidet sich der Dialekt aber auch wirklich von Dorf zu Dorf.
Is the Upper Palatian (Oberpfälzer) dialect speaker in this video from Neumarkt by any chance?
What an awesome video of the different dialects and variations of the German language. I thought that it was very cool how you used the map of each variation. To answer the random question, I would love to learn to speak the beautiful German language fluently one day. :).
So how many of the dialects could you understand or surprised you?? Share this video with your friends and family to see how many of these dialects they understand as well and let us know how they do 😃
Also, thank you again to all who participated! 😊
13:16 min Söl'Ring is spoken on the island of Sylt This dialect sounds more Danish than German (it is strongly influenced by the Danish language, because Sylt is very close to Danmark).
@@janpracht6662 It's easier if you have a danish colleague and learned at least the basics ;)
All of them. I cheated with Söl'Ring though because i have a danish colleague. Not easy with some of them though ;)
As a Sölring and Danish speaker: there are a lot of loanwords but in general Sölring is closer to Old English and Dutch than Danish. It also sounds more like Dutch than Danish.
All of them. But its a bad example, in a daily situation where someone throws lines at you in a dialect it can be challenging to process it quick enough. Especially Plattdeutsch und Schwitzerdütsch i find challenging. On the other hand Sächsisch and Schwäbisch are especially funny and easy to understand.

Thank you so much for this video. It is so much fun to watch!! Thank you for the long hours you put into making it!! About thirty years ago we lived in the very north of Germany (Angeln) where they spoke "Angeliter Platt". I didn't get any of that. Also at some other time I met people who spoke the Schwäbisch of the Schwäbische Alb. That was also very difficult. It would be nice being able to speak Plattdeutsch. It is a really nice language...
I learned some words in the language of the Maassai people, forgot most of them again because it is not a written language and not related to anything. But they say "Supai" for "Hello". And have hand signs for numbers...
Und noch ein Witz auf Kurpfälzisch:
Kommt ein Mann zum Bäcker: "Sin die Weck' weg?" - "Die sin all all." - "Wer woren do do?"
I live in South Eastern Bavaria, near the Austrian border, but grew up in Westphalia. My parents and their siblings all spoke a lot Sauerländer Platt when I was a child, bunI never got to learn it properly. The Bavarian dialect is tough for me, when I am with friends at times I understand zilt, nothing. I find it funny, I just have to remind them to talk slowly. But the beautiful countryside and the laid back attitude of the people here made me feel so comfortable. The ‚Grias di‘ oder ‚Servus‘ I simply love. When I visit family in Westphalia, or at the supermarket, it sometimes slips out, and people look at me in total horror.
Thank you for putting this video up, as usual I loved it!
There is a big difference between swabian and "Badisch". As a Swabian I get easily offended when someone is telling me I'm speaking the same way as somebody from Freiburg and other way around.
That is true! Schwäbisch and Badisch are two diferent dialects! (I am from Freiburg 😉)
Luxembourg in this case is quite peculiar. For example, German is one of the official languages of the government and everybody learns Standart German in school. And a Luxembourger speaking German, would speak Standart German (maybe with an accent...nah not maybe, it's actually quite probable). But Luxembourgish itself could be viewed as a German dialekt witch similarities to Saarländisch and Mosel-Fränkisch, but then again, it is also very different. Although NO Luxembourger would ever refer to Luxembourgish as being a form of German :)
We really hoped to get the Luxembourg dialect but unfortunately didn’t..😊
@@PassportTwo I love luxembourgish! It's such a distinct mixture of mosel-fränkisch and french with a sing-songy melody... just listen to Jean Claude Junker (politician) or Lea Linster (chef) speaking german and you'll get the feeling by hearing their accent.
I must disagree many Luxemburgers can speak a decent Hochdeutsch and I couldn’t tell them apart if there was a small „Singsang“ or accent if they‘d be from Luxemburg or Trier. Same goes for people from Aachen and Eupen. Differences are small. Those days it’s mostly a generation issue and a city versus countryside issue. Berlinerisch is academically spoken not a dialect but a Mundart… most of northern Germany abolished their dialect or even language Plattdütsch.. for standard German with a distinct sound or Singsang and a few words like in every region.
@@PassportTwo Awww I missed the call for submissions, but I can give some infos on Lëtzebuergesch.
Lëtzebuergesch is an "Ausbausprache" of German, that historically developed from the Moselfränkisch dialect. It uses a lot more French vocabulary than German. Luxembourgish students learn Luxembourgish, French, English, sometimes a fifth language like Spanish, Italian, Chinese or Latin and German (Hochdeutsch) in school. Most people don't have a heavy dialect when speaking German, but it always comes down to the person. We do however use a slightly different vocabulary when emulating Hochdeutsch. It never occured to me, but my professor pointed some of the luxembourgisms out that he encountered in the years working with Luxembourgish students. He is actually publishing a lexikon soon about Das Luxemburger Standarddeutsch.
as for the words you requested everyone to say here are the Luxembourgish variants.
Hallo = Moien oder Salut!
Tschüss = Äddi!
1= Eent
2= zwee
3= dräi
4= véier
5= fënnef
6= sechs
7= siwen
8= aacht
9= néng
10= zéng
eine Karotte= éng Muet
eine Kartoffel = éng Gromper

Yes, please do a part 2. I would either learn Arabic, Chinese or Japanese, since they are difficult to learn
Speaking Japanese is very easy to learn, just reading/writing is hard.
Chinese is quiet easy. Only challenging part is like mentioned above the writing system. Although it is a very fun part of learning.
Bread roll is, for me as a german native, the most fascinating (because it is the one that crosses my way the most), there is such a fast variety of names :D
